Permanent operations managers, general managers and operations directors for logistics businesses in Aylesbury.
Permanent leadership hires should leave a site stronger, safer and more profitable.
Aylesbury draws on the South East's deep logistics labour market, strung along the motorway corridors that feed London and the coast. Across the South East, operations leaders are needed at sites such as the Dartford and Thames-side parks and the M20 route to the Channel.
Senior operations offers compete with every major operator in reach. We help set salary, bonus and car allowance so the offer lands.
With the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover serving the region, operations leaders across the South East often oversee sites that run national as well as regional work.
The people who own the service, the costs and the team.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Aylesbury run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
If your offer sits below what comparable leaders earn, we tell you before any interviews. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
Frequent changes at the top of a site show up in turnover, safety and service levels. Continuity steadies all three.
We find out what made each candidate leave their last role, because that tells us whether yours will keep them.
